Flick was also convicted of assaulting another woman in 2010 but a judge decided to ignore the prosecutor's request for a lengthy sentence saying that he was not a threat because of his age. He was released from jail in 2014, and just four years later he was accused of murder again.

A jury spent just 45 minutes deliberating after his two-day trial and found Flick guilty of murdering 48-year-old Kimberly Dobbie in front of her twin 11-year-old sons. He stabbed her 11 times outside of a laundromat, puncturing her heart and fracturing her ribs.
